I like the trap bar, I use it as a quad accessory after I squat. Carryovers well to squats and deadlifts and just overall strength and explosiveness. Plus most folks at the gym don’t use it so the trap bar is typically available lol. Great job Meg as usual
Same at my gym I rarely ever see it being used like ever😂😂
When I did a mock ACFT in the army they LEGIT just threw us into it without any instruction. So dangerous but thats the army 🤦♀️ I forsee a lot of injuries.
My son seconds this assertion. Thanks be we talked him into learning how to power lift.
As Physical Therapist assistant for the Army… tons of injuries
Great tips! Years of crummy form in various things led me to trap bar deadlifting. The foot width tip is really important - I learned the hard way that if my feet got too far apart my hamstrings and glutes would disengage a bit and lead to the lower back doing too much.
I love the trap bar. At the top of my trap bar deadlift I do a static shrug for about 15 seconds and then I gently put the bar down. Its not just more polite but also works you lats a little more. Currently at twice my body weight but I will get to 3.25 times. Three reps at 345lb with perfect form and what a rush afterwards. Leg press is the perfect way to strengthen your legs for trap bar.
Meg thank you so much for all your videos where you show us service members some love!
I used the trap bar deadlift for rehab on my blown disc issues and pain. It was a great work-around to keep going and eventually moved to the barbell. Great video!
Tickling your armpits is the best cue I've heard in a long while
I just needed to say that you have given the best demonstration and explanation of the proper use of the trap bar and how to execute the movement on RUclips - better than all the bodybuilders I have seen trying to explain and demonstrate the use of this piece of equipment. An excellent video! I was debating whether to buy a trap bar and your video and demonstration convinced me, thank you!
Love these instructional videos, Meg! Informative and entertaining content 💪🏆
I just started using the trap bar about 2 months ago and love it! Can you do a video of other exercises we can do using the TB? Ty 😎
Great video. I tried the trap bar today and I enjoyed using this equipment 💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾💪🏾
I only use the hex bar for true deadlifts (otherwise do rdls). The form info was really helpful, thank you! ❤️
Best trap bar instruction I have seen. Thank you. 👍
I have never used the trap bar in my gym. This was helpful, thanks 🙏
I agree the deadlift is definitely the easiest event! I personally just don’t go very heavy because it makes the run so much harder lol. I’d love to max the whole test some day but with how often we take it sometimes we just have to find a balance of which events to max and which to take it easy in order to get by.
Really loving your videos 🙌
Great explanation. Thanks
Thank you this really helped!
Thank you for calling BS on the Army "fitness" webpage for recommended exercises to pass the ACFT. It has been my biggest gripe this past three years! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you. Also, are you planning on maybe making a training plan for the ACFT for your website? 🤔
Trap bar is great for farmers carries too. Very challenging to the upper traps due to the arm angle.
I have set myself a target of a 5 rep X 100kg deadlift by the end of the year. Switching to trap bar will make that possible.
Wow great demo 💪Can you comment on the timing and duration of breathhold and abdominal bracing? For me that's the silver bullet - exactly when to exhale, should you hold the breath/brace for the entire movement or exhale and re-brace at the top...thanks 🤗
#1 best single bodybuilding exercise for building the entire body and triggering hormone response
I will be going back to the hexbar..My body has not been feeling conventional DL at all lately 😫😮💨
Great video! I don't powerlift so i see no reason to do the conventional deadlift over the trap bar. Plus I'm 6'4 and its way easier on my lower back.
I thought you were Emily Blunt. Amazing. Thanks for the demo.
Omg I want a trap bar so bad now!
It's the ᴺᵒ ᵈᵒⁿ'ᵗ ᵈᵒ ᶦᵗ for me
Great video.
when you say 230 pounds, is that also including the bar ? Traps bars I’ve seen is usually 60 pounds
Total weight is counted - so yes
Oh no... every time I set up now I'm going to think about being tickled and hear that no don't do it
👍
My feet just have one point of contact … flat foot problems.
Well, some history: this bar is not a trap bar (rombus), it's a shrug bar (hexagonal). Other types: circle and open bars like in the video.
Ms. Megsquats if you'd like a trap bar that is the perfect width for your arms, you can design one that has a telescoping metal bar that braces with a metal pin similar to the pully machines and now you're a billionaire and you've helped everyone with weird bodies. You're welcome.
Not sure if you respond to comments, but please help me. Tons of stuff for men, I need help with my strength. I wrestle and want to power lift, I been doing 5x5 thinking it would be the answer, but I haven’t been impressed at all with the program.
I always go high handles as I only own numerous small plates. Works out near enough the same.
what are you planning for half a million subs?
Today's tip: Be able to deadlift your parents'/elders' weight by the time they're a fall risk.
💕💕💕 Very Beautiful Amazing 💙💙💙
Another con I would add is that I have to add a 45# plate to step on in order to get full depth/ or full range of motion- because I am so short. I am exactly 5 foot tall and that’s my struggle!
Unfortunately in the Army they don’t let us use flat lifting shoes. Running shoes only.
I believe with the acft you’re allowed to switch shoes, I have yet to see someone actually do it but we were told it’s within regulation
who owns BuffChick?
Best flat shoes to lift in - vivo barefoot. The wide toebox gives your toes the space they crave
Those shoes have been proven to be bad imo yea you flat foot but your toes are squashed
What study showed that they’re bad for your feet? The topic is overhyped and overblown. Wear whatever flat shoes you want
I wear high top vans👌🏾 plenty of toe space
Why would military service members would want to watch this
Why would they not?
Because the trap bar deadlift is in the new Army Combat Fitness Test
@@Megsquats not only that, when i was in the Army 13 years ago almost none of us did any sort of actual lifting. We would hit the on base gym and goof around on some machines occasionally, but almost no one legit lifted. Now all those people are in leadership positions and lack the knowledge to train their soldiers how to excel at this new fitness test. Videos like this are incredible, you cant be thanked enough.
I’m in the army and already feel confident about this test but I’m watching the series because Meg gives good advice.
the gray leggings and sports bra you have on in this video are my favorites
